Fig. 8A —46-year-old man with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
Progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is shown in comparable axial
images from CT studies in 2002 (A), 2003 (B), 2004 (C),
and 2006 (D). Note progressive increase in hepatic fatty content
between 2002 and 2004. In 2004, liver biopsy confirmed nonalcoholic
steatohepatitis. No obvious morphologic changes are seen in liver contour
during this period. In 2006, patient was diagnosed as having cirrhosis. Again,
no obvious morphologic abnormality is evident other than reduction in hepatic
fatty content.
